Baked Oatmeal

These icy winter mornings make it hard to get out of our cozy beds! It’s nice to have an easy, warming breakfast ready to go! Try making a batch of yummy baked oatmeal ahead of time. You can easily reheat it for a quick hot breakfast any day.

Baked oatmeal is made by layering fruit, oats, nuts & spices in a casserole dish, then pouring liquid and a beaten egg over everything. Bake it until it is crisp & golden. It tastes great fresh out of the oven and just as good the next day.

Use about ¼ cup oats per serving. Add cinnamon, nutmeg and a generous pinch of sea salt. I find 2 cups of oatmeal to be the right amount for an 8×8 dish. Add ½ cup walnuts, pecans or almonds if you like. Chia or flaxseeds also boost the nutritional content.

Measure 2 cups liquid – it can be almond milk, apple juice, kefir, or any liquid you prefer. Add 1 tbsp melted butter or coconut oil for richness. Now whisk in 1 egg.

Next measure out 2 cups of fruit. Frozen blueberries, diced apples, sliced peaches, with some raisins or chopped dried fruit are all good. Spread the fruit on the bottom of your dish. Sprinkle the dry mix over the fruit, and then the egg & liquid over all.

Bake at 350⁰ for 30-40 minutes. This recipe will keep in the fridge for 5 days and makes 8 portions. Enjoy!
